Quick question on trademarks.

If you search many of the Apache project names, they are trademarked to gezoo, however if you search "Apache XXX" it cleans up. Once/one day when the project graduates from
Incubator it will also be "Apache XXX" which is unique.

How is this different from any of the other names in Apache that are highly trademarked without
the "Apache" qualifier?

Comments please - what is the policy?
Carl.

In any case, BLAZE is one of the more over-registered trademarks
in the USPTO with 329 applications, most of them live and at least
one registered for web software.  It is not an acceptable name for
a podling.

Good point -- thanks, Roy!
